Definition of "Cold Work" |
Cold work is a type of metalworking done by subjecting metal to enough mechanical stress to cause plastic deformation, a permanent change in the metal's crystalline structure. It gets its name because it is done at temperatures below the metal's recrystallization point and alters the metal's structure through mechanical stress rather than heat. The technique increases a metal's strength and hardness while reducing its ductility. |
